Lord grant me patience.

How long can you wait until you can’t wait any longer?  I am at that breaking point.  I have the feeling of dread pulling me one way in my current lifestyle and the feeling of excitement and anticipation pulling me the other way.  As July comes near nervousness is thrown in the mixture.  Soon even I will not be able to recognize my own life, things are under major reconstruction.

(Minha's house is the one with the red roof) The journey to Nic’s small town was going to be a challenge; there was no real easy way to get there.  The town is Sao Frutuoso and has a very small population, however there is a bar!  So that is a plus.  We started our trip by flying to Porto and then took two trains, a cab and then a bus to the town.  Nic’s grandma, Minha was very excited and was standing outside waiting for us to arrive along with her...
